Notice Varying on
Vary
header specifies a list of headers that must be considered when caching responses. For a cached response to be used, these headers must match between the cached response and the new request. This ensures that the appropriate version of a resource is served based on factors like language, encoding, or device type.Notice Varying on
user-agent
can lead to low cache efficiency due to the high number of unique user agents. Only use this if you're serving significantly different content based on user agent.x-cache

header will be ignored. Consider removing Expires
to save bandwidth and processing power.cache-control
public, max-age=2678400

means the response may be stored by all caches, including browser caches, CDNs, and shared caches.max-age
specifies the maximum amount of seconds a page is considered valid. The higher max-age
, the longer a page can be cached.cf-ray
